The campaign was started by Juan Mann whose mission was to hug a stranger and brighten their day. This symbol of human hope has spread across the globe. Join us in the true spirit of humanity.. sometimes a hug is all you need. ♥

Hugging is good medicine. It transfers energy and give the person hugged an emotional lift. Scientists say we need four hugs a day for survival, eight for maintenance and twelve for growth. Hugging is form of communication as it can say things you do not have the words for. And the nicest thing about a hug, you usually can't give one without getting one! :)
